A jewelry kiln is a type of furnace specifically designed for heating and melting metals and other materials. Jewelry kilns come in various sizes, shapes, and designs and can be fueled by electricity, gas, or charcoal. Some jewelry kilns even have multiple chambers, which can be used for different processes, such as annealing or enameling.

Jewelry kilns typically reach up to 2200 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to melt most metals. The high temperatures also make jewelry kilns ideal for soldering and annealing metals. They usually have temperature controls so that the user can set it to the precise temperature needed for their project.

Jewelry kilns can be used for various jewelry-making techniques, such as casting, enameling, annealing, and soldering. They are also sometimes used to heat treat gemstones to become harder and more durable.
